That, indeed is the complaint, along with:

# There's no way to stop it appearing on start up (Having turned it 
on).

# There's no close button, so that once open you need to use a title 
bar button.

Put together, I'd say that completely breaks all the conventions for 
how a "Tip of the Day" should behave, not to mention, a user interface
convention.

No idea why that had to happen, but it's almost at the stage where I 
say it might have been better to take it out all together, or just 
placed all the tips, on a single conventional help page.

However, I'm sure you've had the same thoughts yourself, and 
hopefully, with the next release, it will be back to the way it was 
before.

Greg
